Wireless Basics
D-Link AirPlus wireless products are based on industry standards to provide
easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your
home, business or public access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the
IEEE standard, the D-Link AirPlus wireless family of products will allow you
to access the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to
enjoy the freedom that wireless networking delivers.
A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that
transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless
LANs are used increasingly in both home and office environments, and
public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways
to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate
more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other
fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many users.
Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network.
Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems, support the
same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.
Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices
to link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an
Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Access
Point (AP) is a device used to provide this link.
People use wireless LAN technology for many different purposes:
Mobility - Productivity increases when people have access to data in any
location within the operating range of the WLAN. Management decisions
based on real-time information can significantly improve worker efficiency.
Low Implementation Costs – WLANs (Wireless Local Area Networks) are
easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently
change, both physically and logically, can benefit from WLANs ease of
implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring
may be impractical.
Installation Speed and Simplicity - Installing a wireless LAN system can
be fast and easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and
ceilings.
Wireless Basics
Network Expansion - Wireless technology allows the network to go where
wires cannot go.
Reduced Cost-of-Ownership - While the initial investment required for
wireless LAN hardware might be higher than the cost of wired LAN hardware,
overall installation expenses and life-cycle costs will be significantly lower.
Long-term cost benefits are greatest in dynamic environments requiring
frequent moves, adds, and changes.
Scalability – Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) can be configured in a
variety of topologies to meet the needs of specific applications and
installations. Configurations are easily changed and range from peer-to-peer
networks suitable for a small number of users to full infrastructure networks
of thousands of users that allow roaming over a broad area.
D-Link AirPlus Wireless Family of LAN products include:
Enhanced 2.4GHz Wireless Cardbus Adapters used with laptop
computers (DWL-650+)
Enhanced 2.4GHz Wireless PCI cards used with desktop computers
(DWL-520+)
Enhanced 2.4GHz Wireless Router and Access Point (DI-614+,DWL900AP+)
The DI-614+ is also compatible with the D-Link Air 802.11b family of
products, which include:
2.4GHz Wireless Cardbus Adapters used with laptop computers
(DWL-650)
2.4GHz Wireless PCI cards used with desktop computers (DWL-520)
Wireless Router/Access Point/Print Servers (DI-713P)
Wireless Access Points (DWL-1000AP, DWL-900AP)
Standards - Based Technology
The IEEE standard-based technology assures that the D-Link AirPlus
Products are interoperable with existing compatible 2.4GHz wireless
technology. This means you will be able to transfer large files quickly or
even watch a movie in MPEG format over your network without noticeable
delays. The technology works by using multiple frequencies in the 2.4GHz
range at speeds up to 22 Mbps. D-Link AirPlus products will automatically
8
Wireless Basics
sense the best possible connection speed to ensure the greatest speed and
range possible with the technology.
Installation Considerations
Designed to go up to 1,312 feet (400 meters) outdoors and up to 328 feet
(100 meters) indoors, D-Link AirPlus DI-614+ lets you access your network
with your laptop computer from virtually anywhere. Keep in mind, however,
that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings or other objects that
the wireless signals must pass thru may limit range. Typical ranges vary
depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency)
noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing range is to follow
these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the wireless Access
Point and your receiving device (e.g., the DWL-650+) to a minimum Each wall or ceiling can reduce your D-Link Air Wireless product’s range
from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your Access Points, Residential
Gateways, and computers so that the number of walls or ceilings is
minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between Access Points, Residential
Gateways (routers) and computers. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5
meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick.
At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Try to make
sure that the Access Points and adapters are positioned so that the
signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling for better reception.
3. Building Materials make a difference - A solid metal door or aluminum
studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position Access Points,
and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through
drywall or open doorways and not other materials.
4. Make sure that the device’s antenna is positioned for best reception by
using the software signal strength tools included with your product.
5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical
devices or appliances that may generate extreme RF noise.
For the average home, signal range should not be an issue. If you
experience low or no signal strength in areas of your home that you wish to
access, consider positioning the Access Point in a location directly between
the computers with wireless adapters. Additional Access Points can be
connected to provide better coverage in rooms where the signal does not
appear as strong as desired.

Getting Started
Right out of the box, with its default settings, the DI-614+ will
automatically connect with other D-Link Air or AirPlus products.
For the price of a single IP Address from your Broadband Internet Service
provider you can share the Internet with all the computers on your local
network, without sacrificing speed or security, using D-Link AirPlus
networking products.
IP ADDRESS
Please note: If you have a DHCP-capable router, such as the
D-Link DI-614+, there is no need to assign an IP Address.
If you need to assign IP Addresses to the computers on the
network, please remember that the IP Address for each
computer must be in the same IP Address range as all the
computers in the network, and the Subnet mask must be exactly
the same for all the computers in the network.
For example: If the first computer is assigned an IP Address of
192.168.0.2 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second
computer can be assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.3 with a
Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, etc.
IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the
same IP Address, one or more of the devices may not be
visible on the network.
The Infrastructure Network example shown on the following page contains
the following D-Link network devices:
A wireless Broadband Router - D-Link AirPlus DI-614+
A laptop computer with a wireless adapter - D-Link AirPlus DWL-650+
A desktop computer with a wireless adapter - D-Link AirPlus DWL-520+
A Cable modem - D-Link DCM-200
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.
It is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses “automatically.”
With a DHCP-capable gateway/router, there is
no need to manually assign an IP address.

ADVANCED > VIRTUAL SERVER
Virtual Server
The DI-614+ can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users
accessing Web or FTP services via the public IP address can be
automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).
The DI-614+ firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect your
LAN network so all computers networked with the DI-614+ are invisible to
the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN computers
accessible from the Internet by enabling Virtual Server. Depending on the
requested service, the DI-614+ redirects the external service request to the
appropriate server within the LAN network.
20
The DI-614+ is also capable of port-redirection meaning incoming traffic to a
particular port may be redirected to a different port on the server computer.
Each virtual services that are created will be listed at the bottom of the
screen in the Virtual Servers List. There are already pre-defined virtual
services already in the table. You may use them by enabling them and
assigning the server IP to use that particular virtual service.
Name: The name referencing the virtual service.
Private IP: The server computer in the LAN (Local Area Network) that will be
providing the virtual services.
Private Port: The port number of the service used by the Private IP
computer.
Protocol Type: The protocol used for the virtual service.
Public Port: The port number on the WAN side that will be used to access
the virtual service.
Schedule: The schedule of time when the virtual service will be enabled.
The schedule may be set to Always, which will allow the particular service to
always be enabled. If it is set to Time, select the time frame for the service to
be enabled. If the system time is outside of the scheduled time, the service
will be disabled.
Example #1:
If you have a Web server that you wanted Internet users to access at all times, you
would need to enable it. Web (HTTP) server is on LAN (Local Area Network)
computer 192.168.0.25. HTTP uses port 80, TCP.
Name: Web Server
Private IP: 192.168.0.25
Protocol Type: TCP
Private Port: 80
Public Port: 80
Schedule: always
Click on this icon to edit the virtual service.
Click on this icon to delete the virtual service.
Example #2:
If you have an FTP server that you wanted Internet users to access by WAN port
2100 and only during the weekends, you would need to enable it as such. FTP
server is on LAN computer 192.168.0.30. FTP uses port 21, TCP.
Name: FTP Server
Private IP: 192.168.0.30
Protocol Type: TCP
Private Port: 21
Public Port: 2100
Schedule: From: 01:00AM to 01:00AM, Sat to Sun
•
All Internet users who want to access this FTP Server must connect to it
from port 2100. This is an example of port redirection and can be useful
in cases where there are many of the same servers on the LAN
network.
ADVANCED > APPLICATIONS
Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming,
video conferencing, Internet telephony and others. These applications have
22
difficulties working through NAT (Network Address Translation). Special
Applications makes some of these applications work with the DI-614+. If you
need to run applications that require multiple connections, specify the port
normally associated with an application in the "Trigger Port" field, select the
protocol type as TCP or UDP, then enter the public ports associated with the
trigger port to open them for inbound traffic.
The DI-614+ provides some predefined applications in the table on the
bottom of the web page. Select the application you want to use and enable it.
Note! Only one PC can use each Special Application tunnel.
Trigger Name: This is the name referencing the special application.
Trigger Port: This is the port used to trigger the application. It can be either
a single port or a range of ports.
Trigger Type: This is the protocol used to trigger the special application.
Public Port: This is the port number on the WAN side that will be used to
access the application. You may define a single port or a range of ports. You
can use a comma to add multiple ports or port ranges.
Public Type: This is the protocol used for the special application.
Schedule: This is the schedule of time when the special application will be
enabled.
Filters
Filters are used to deny or
allow LAN (Local Area
Network) computers from
accessing the Internet.
The DI-614+ can be setup
to deny internal computers
by their IP or MAC
addresses. The DI-614+
can also block users from
accessing restricted web
sites.
IP Filters
Use IP Filters to deny LAN
IP addresses from
accessing the Internet.
You can deny specific port
numbers or all ports for
ADVANCED > FILTERS
the specific IP address.
IP: The IP address of the LAN computer that will be denied access to the
Internet.
Port: The single port or port range that will be denied access to the Internet.
Schedule: This is the schedule of time when the IP Filter will be enabled.
MAC Filters
Use MAC (Media
Access Control) Filters
to allow or deny LAN
(Local Area Network)
computers by their
MAC addresses from
accessing the Internet.
You can either
manually add a MAC
address or select the
MAC address from the
list of clients that are
currently connected to the Broadband Router.
URL Blocking
URL Blocking is used
to deny LAN computers
from accessing specific
web sites by its URL. A
URL is a specially
formatted text string
that defines a location
on the Internet. If any
part of the URL
contains the blocked
word, the site will not
be accessible and the
web page will not
display.
24
Domain Blocking
Domain Blocking is
used to allow or deny
LAN (Local Area
Network) computers
from accessing specific
domains on the
Internet. Domain
blocking will deny all
requests to a specific
domain such as http
and ftp. It can also
allow computers to
access specific sites
and deny all other sites.
ADVANCED > FIREWALL
Firewall Rules is an advance feature used to deny or allow traffic from
passing through the Broadband Router. It works in the same way as IP
Filters with additional settings. You can create more detailed access rules for
the DI-614+. When virtual services are created and enabled, it will also
display in Firewall Rules. Firewall Rules contains all network firewall rules
pertaining to IP (Internet Protocol).
In the Firewall Rules List at the bottom of the screen, the priorities of the
rules are from top (highest priority) to bottom (lowest priority.)
Note: The DI-614+ MAC Address filtering rules have precedence over the
Firewall Rules.
26
ADVANCED > DMZ
If you have a client PC that cannot run Internet applications properly from
behind the DI-614+, then you can set the client up to unrestricted Internet
access. It allows a computer to be exposed to the Internet. This feature is
useful for gaming purposes. Enter the IP address of the internal computer
that will be the DMZ host. Adding a client to the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)
may expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so only use this
option as a last resort.
Admin
At this page, the DI-614+
administrator can change the
system password. There are
two accounts that can
access the Broadband
Router’s Web-Management
interface. They are admin
and user. Admin has
read/write access while user
has read-only access. User
can only view the settings
but cannot make any
changes.
TOOLS > ADMIN
Remote Management
Remote Management allows the DI-614+ to be configured from the Internet
by a web browser. A username and password is still required to access the
Web-Management interface. In general, only a member of your network can
browse the built-in web pages to perform “Administrator” tasks. This feature
enables you to perform “Administrator” tasks from the remote (Internet) host.
IP Address: Internet IP address of the computer that has access to the
Broadband Router. It is not recommended that you set the IP address to
* (star), because this allows any Internet IP address to access the
Broadband Router, which could result in a loss of security for your
network. If you elect to enable Remote Management, enter the IP Address
of your remote location.
Port: Select the port number used to access the Broadband Router.
Example: http://x.x.x.x:8080 whereas x.x.x.x is the WAN IP address of the
Broadband Router and 8080 is the port used for the Web-Management
interface.
TOOLS > TIME
Time
The system time is the time
used by the DI-614+ for
scheduling services. You can
manually set the time or
connect to a NTP (Network
Time Protocol) server. If an
NTP server is set, you will
only need to set the time
zone. If you manually set the
time, you may also set
Daylight Saving dates and
the system time will automatically adjust on those dates.
System Settings
The current system
settings can be saved as
a file onto the local hard
drive. The saved file or
any other saved setting
file can be loaded back
on the Broadband
Router. To reload a
system settings file, click
on Browse to browse the
TOOLS > SYSTEM
28
local hard drive and locate the system file to be used. You may also reset
the Broadband Router back to factory settings by clicking on Restore.

Miscellaneous Items
These are additional tools
and features of the
Broadband Router.
Ping Test
This useful diagnostic
utility can be used to
check if a computer is on
the Internet. It sends ping
packets and listens for
replies from the specific
host.
Restart Device
If for any reason the Broadband Router is not responding correctly, you may
want to restart the Broadband Router.
Block WAN Ping
When you “Block WAN Ping”, will not respond to ping commands from the
Internet. Pinging public WAN IP addresses is a common method used by
hackers to test whether your WAN IP address is valid.
Discard PING from WAN side: By enabling this option, the DI-614+ will not
reply to ping (ICMP) request packets from the Internet.
VPN Pass-Through
The Broadband Router supports VPN (Virtual Private Network) pass-through
for both PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) and IPSec (IP Security).
Once VPN pass-through is enabled, there is no need to open up virtual
services. Multiple VPN connections can be made through the Broadband
Router. This is useful when you have many VPN clients on the LAN network.

Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the
installation and operation of the DI-614+ Wireless Access Point. We cover
various aspects of the network setup, including the network adapters.
Please read the following if you are having problems.
(Note: It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to
configure the DI-614+ Access Point.)
1. The computer used to configure the DI-614+ cannot access the
Configuration menu.
•
Check that the Ethernet LED on the DI-614+ is ON. If the
LED is not ON, check that the cable for the Ethernet
connection is securely inserted.
•
Check that the Ethernet Adapter is working properly. Please
see item 6 (Check that the drivers for the network
adapters are installed properly) in this Troubleshooting
section to check that the drivers are loaded properly.
•
Check that the IP Address is in the same range and subnet
as the DI-614+. Please see Checking the IP Address in
Windows XP in the Networking Basics section of this
manual.
Note: The IP Address of the DI-614+ is 192.168.0.1. All the computers on the
network must have a unique IP Address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x.
and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. Any computers that have identical IP
Addresses will not be visible on the network.
•
Do a Ping test to make sure that the DI-614+ is responding.
Go to Start>Run>Type Command>Type ping 192.168.0.1.
A successful ping will show four replies.
Troubleshooting
2. The wireless client cannot access the Internet in the Infrastructure
mode.
•
Make sure the wireless client is associated and joined with the correct
router. To check this connection: Right-click on the Local Area
Connection icon in the taskbar> select View Available Wireless
Networks. The Connect to Wireless Network screen will appear.
Please make sure you have selected the correct available network, as
shown in the illustrations below.
Default
•
Check that the IP Address assigned to the wireless adapter is within
the same IP Address range as the gateway. Since the DI-614+ has
an IP Address of 192.168.0.1, wireless adapters must have an IP
Address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x. Each device must
have a unique IP Address; no two devices may have the same IP
Address. The subnet mask must be the same for all the computers
on the network.) To check the IP Address assigned to the wireless
adapter, double-click on the Local Area Connection icon in the
taskbar > select the Support tab and the IP Address will be
displayed. (Please refer to Checking the IP Address in the
Networking Basics section of this manual.)
•
If it is necessary to assign a Static IP Address to the wireless
adapter, please refer to the appropriate section in Networking
Basics. If you are entering a DNS Server address you must also
enter the Default Gateway Address. (Remember that if you have a
DHCP-capable router, you will not need to assign a Static IP Address.
See Networking Basics: Assigning a Static IP Address.)

Troubleshooting
4. Resetting the DI-614+ to Factory Default Settings
After you have tried other methods for troubleshooting your network, you
may choose to Reset the DI-614+ to the factory default settings.
Remember that D-Link AirPlus products network together, out of the box,
at the factory default settings.
To hard-reset the D-Link AirPlus DI-614+ to Factory Default Settings, please
do the following:
• Leave the device powered on, do not disconnect the power
• Press the reset button and hold (use a paper clip)
• Keep the button pressed about 10 seconds
• Release the button
The DI-614+ will then automatically reboot itself.

replacement Software is provided only to the original licensee, and is subject to the terms and conditions
of the license granted by D-Link for the Software. The Warranty Period shall extend for an additional
ninety (90) days after any replacement Software is delivered. If a material non-conformance is incapable

refunded by D-Link; provided that the non-conforming Software (and all copies thereof) is first returned to
D-Link. The license granted respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically terminates.
